MDKSA-2005:107

Problembeschreibung

A heap-based buffer overflow was found in the way that ImageMagick
parses PNM files. If an attacker can trick a victim into opening
a specially crafted PNM file, the attacker could execute arbitrary
code on the victim's machine (CAN-2005-1275).
As well, a Denial of Service vulnerability was found in the way
that ImageMagick parses XWD files. If a user or program executed
ImageMagick to process a malicious XWD file, ImageMagick will enter
info an infinite loop causing a DoS (CAN-2005-1739).
The updated packages have been patched to fix these issues.
